  • This study investigates the impact of connected warning information on driver behavior during pedestri-an-vehicle conflicts on urban roads. Using a driving simulator, urban driving scenarios and connected warning infor-mation systems are designed, incorporating various types of visual blind areas to create six typical pedestrian-vehi-cle conflicts. Seventy participants are recruited and divided into experimental and control groups to complete the simulator tests, during which driver behavior and vehicle trajectory data are collected. Survival analysis is employed to examine the effects of different factors on drivers' reaction times and braking durations during conflicts. Addi-tionally, pedestrian-vehicle crash prediction models are developed to assess crash risk and evaluate the influence of connected warning information on driver behavior. Results indicated that blind spots caused by buses, trees and cars, and parked cars negatively impacted driver performance, resulting in longer reaction times and shorter braking durations. Contrarily, the presence of crosswalks reduced the mean avoidance reaction time by 0.90 s, increased the mean braking duration by 0.41 s, and lowered pedestrian-vehicle crash risk. Furthermore, connected warning infor-mation is found to positively affect driver behavior, reducing mean avoidance reaction times by 0.52 s and increas-ing braking duration by 0.40 s. This leads to smoother braking processes and significantly decreased crash risks, thereby enhancing pedestrian safety.
